The stellar evening with the stars is scheduled for Friday, February 28 at Birkdale Farm following the sell-out success of the very first event last Autumn which was marked by pristine clear skies.

Night owls will get the chance to gaze through telescopes at Venus, a crescent moon, sparkling stars clusters and far away galaxies.

Event co-leader Richard Darn said: “We are delighted to stage this second session with the farm as part of the UK’s biggest dark sky festival.
